They're springy, just bend the copper out so that you know placing the hub cover on it will make contact. You can also tell by looking at the inside of the hub and see near the center a cleaned / swept area where the contact is supposed to hit. If you have undisturbed grease it's not touching like it should.

If you're not a big AM radio listener then you'll probably not miss these little dealies if they're off the car completely.
